I think this country is growing up a little bit.

I would like to see both parties aggressively compete for the women's vote and talk about what they will do to unleash the economic power of women, to protect women's health, to provide the right policies that provide for real family stability and real family values.

I experienced no conflict between my mother and father, which was entirely due to my mother's compassion, intelligence, and maturity.

If you ever get to a point where you stop learning, you will find your professional options and your personal satisfaction severely curtailed.

The experiences that I've had growing up with music, you know, I couldn't trade them for any money in the world. Dancing in the living room to enjoy myself. 'Enjoy Yourself,' Michael Jackson.

If you want a good life, don't succeed at anything too early or too well. And don't choose a profession that attracts money or attention. The minute people want to see you doing what you do, you're finished.

If I win and get the money, then the Oakland Police department is going to buy a boys' home, me a house, my family a house, and a Stop Police Brutality Center.

I've never chased money. It's always been about what I can do to motivate and inspire people.
